You can’t control her mood, her actions, or how she feels.

You didn’t choose her because you were sure.
You chose her because she saw you.
And in that moment, it felt like everything you ever wanted.

This episode of The Secure Husband Podcast speaks to the man who just realized:

You are not alone.
You are not broken.
